I wanted to be an actress. I wanted to be known. Yes, it's difficult sometimes. I believe that if you're going to be in a profession like this, which is so open to criticism, to speculation, you need to have people around you who will believe in you and stand by you.

Katrina Kaif

I live my life exactly the way I want to. Nothing stops me from going out or being anywhere that I want to be. I am doing whatever I want to do. I do not live my life according to any restrictions whatsoever!

Katrina Kaif

Life Where Whatsoever

Going by my past journey, I am not certain where life will take me, what turns and twists will happen; nobody knows where they will end up. As life changes direction, I'll flow with it.

Katrina Kaif

Life Change Wit

I feel it is important not to get overly obsessed and overly carried away with just the physical aspect. There is more to beauty than just the physical appearance. You are also a complete person, and a woman should have an identity beyond just the way she looks.

Car You Woman

I have an impeccable memory, and I can learn dialogues in any language in 20 minutes, including Telugu and Malayalam.

Katrina Kaif

Age Ya Telugu

There's competition in every field, and that's healthy. It makes you work harder and be your best. Competition, not in terms of money or number of projects, but in the quality of your work, is very healthy.

Katrina Kaif

Work Pet Money

I believe in destiny, God's hand and hard work.

Katrina Kaif

Work God Tiny

I would die without goals or a focus. I need something to keep me going.

Katrina Kaif

Would Without Wit

Every one has her own love life. Every one has a dream to get a perfect life partner. But this is not so easy in real life. In fact, one doesn't love; it happens.

Katrina Kaif

Love Life Art

I seriously don't take praise to my heart or to my head. I only want to work harder and never get complacent.

Katrina Kaif

Work Art Work Hard

If you're a public figure, people have the right to speculate and gossip.

Katrina Kaif

You T Sip

I want to clear this once and for all. I was born in Hong Kong. I grew up in Japan and China. London is not home for me. I was there only for three years before I moved to India, but that's probably why I am connected with it. London is definitely not the place I consider my home. It's India that I consider home.

Katrina Kaif

Home Years Year

I believe that if you reject and don't respect what you have now, that's ingratitude. I'm grateful for everything I have today.

Katrina Kaif

Respect You Very

Like the Bond girl, there's a stigma attached to being a 'Dhoom' girl. You have to look pretty good, and people are going to judge you.

Katrina Kaif

Good You T

I don't believe there is any point in holding on to too many things in life.

Katrina Kaif

Life Too Things

I'm not a television anchor for a Hindi channel or a radio jockey. So I may not be able to have a spontaneous conversation in Hindi. I'm a Bollywood actress, and I can certainly speak my dialogue in Hindi.

Katrina Kaif

Wood Woo Vision

I realised that you can go through times of extreme happiness, but if that happiness is not coming from a deeply rooted place, you will also be going through extreme lows of sadness.

Katrina Kaif

Time Sad Happiness

You have to grow. I can't be the same person I was at 18; otherwise, I'd be stagnant.

Katrina Kaif

You Wise Tag

I'm not a big spender or shopper. Neither am I extravagant, nor do I have big expenses. I mainly spend on travel. I don't buy overpriced clothes, as I feel such expenses are unnecessary. I probably wouldn't buy expensive watches or jewellery either.

Katrina Kaif

Travel Would Well

It's not my style to either wear minimum clothes, to strip, or to even be comfortable with a sex-symbol label. I just want to do good work instead of sporting such meaningless tags. Sex sells, but to a small extent, not always. And this is what filmmakers have to accept.

Katrina Kaif

Love should be all about giving and trusting.

Katrina Kaif

Trust Love Us

Financial security is crucial for your family, and I have a large family. Money does matter when you don't have it. When you need it, you realise the value of it. In that sense, money will always have value.

Katrina Kaif

All my life, I have judged my worth by how much I have been loved by a man. It's so with a lot of women, that their self-esteem is measured by how much they are loved by a man, their partner, their boyfriend or maybe their husband. In my case, it may be because I grew up without my father.

Katrina Kaif

'Moral police' is my new word. I am very against the media doing moral policing, giving opinions on actor's lives. Media should not become moral police; they should just report.

Katrina Kaif

I am a religious person and rely heavily on prayers.

Katrina Kaif

Learning what all you can overcome as a person, as a human being, is very important. It's very important to understand your strength. Which is not to say you become hardened or bitter.

Katrina Kaif

You don't really know how your film is going to turn out, but you can give it your best shot and hope the audience loves it. This has been my approach right from the beginning, and it's helped me a lot in my journey. All you can do is give the film your everything.

Katrina Kaif

Guys never looked at me. I always had crushes on older seniors who never looked at me. So, when I tell directors that I wanna play that girl who gets rejected, they're like, 'Why?' I tell them it's because I relate to that girl much more than being the girl who makes jaws drop when she walks into a room.

Katrina Kaif

I have a very positive attitude in life. My insecurity, fear and need to know about tomorrow has fortunately eased. What is going to happen will happen anyway. So why break my head over it?

Katrina Kaif

My only plan every day is to get up and go to work, work hard and come back home. And whatever else needs to happen in my life will come in its own time.

Katrina Kaif

With every film, we form a small little world for a period of time. Everybody is close, and then one fine day everything is over. That can throw you off. So you have to learn to take things in your stride and not get too emotional about people or situations.

Katrina Kaif

I make an attempt to do different kinds of films. There's no such formula for guaranteed success.

Katrina Kaif

You can try to plan your career, but not marriage.

Katrina Kaif

There are so many actors whom I can be paired with... like Hrithik Roshan, but there hasn't been an opportunity. Abhishek and I looked good together in 'Sarkar.' And of course, there's Shah Rukh Khan, but I haven't been offered a film with him yet. I hope to work with them in the future; it's just a matter of time.

Katrina Kaif

Dance has been a big passion for me.

Katrina Kaif

I wanted to be an actress. I wanted to be known. Yes, it's difficult sometimes. I believe that if you're going to be in a profession like this, which is so open to criticism, to speculation, you need to have people around you who will believe in you and stand by you.

Katrina Kaif

My choice of films has never been governed by money. That is perhaps why I don't have a very fancy bank account. I'd rather get respect and creative satisfaction through my work than just earn money.

Katrina Kaif

I'm a private person. And I have a certain way in which I protect myself. I don't openly wear my feelings.

Katrina Kaif

I'm here to work.. not to like or dislike people. Neither am I here to win a Miss Congeniality competition. I maintain professional relations with my co-stars.

Katrina Kaif

I've never made a plan for my life. I have just taken whatever opportunities have come and been very genuine with them.

Katrina Kaif

I'd like to do an action film like Angelina Jolie's 'Salt.'

Katrina Kaif

I think what you learn from relationships is that they are unpredictable.

Katrina Kaif

Salman Khan did not help me get movie offers. What rubbish! Will any producer take a risk of millions of rupees at the instance of any person? Everyone knows that the film industry is highly competitive, and one gets a job on one's talent only and not on any recommendation.

Katrina Kaif

I will give my life to whoever in need, to any dear friend of mine.

Katrina Kaif

I have never dissected my personal life. What sense would it make?

Katrina Kaif

I don't click pictures. People carry a camera with them while travelling, take pictures, keep them as memories, but I don't. I don't even have a camera.

Katrina Kaif

For me, physical beauty is never the reason for attraction to anyone.

Katrina Kaif

You have to understand, beauty differs from country to country. When I came to India, I found my sense of belonging and appreciation. People thought I was beautiful.

Katrina Kaif

Nobody would be an actor if he/she were not charming at some level.

Katrina Kaif

I think I have been very conscious throughout my career. I can't go back and remember every line of every ad I have done, but I think in the most part I have been pretty conscious that we are not making a wrong claim. I am pretty confident with everything I do.

Katrina Kaif

I was always interested in fabric, clothes and designing. Maybe I would have been a designer by profession if I didn't start acting.
